That's pretty much what I had in mind. Stylus could come handy only if its use meant higher precision in certain probable applications like drawing and note taking. Otherwise iPhone apps are tuned for the usual level of accuracy a user can reach using their fingers; that's why WinMo devices don't use capacitive screens (small buttons -> more options/maneuverability per area).
